The Clerk said that at the time the soundproofing for the office quarters was I
authorized it was thought that perhaps all walls in the billing and storage j
rooms need not be treated, however, it now appears that the west walls of each �
of these rooms should be covered with accoustical tile to more effectively
control the noise of the billing and addressograph machines; and that a quote
of :'180 has been secured from Mr. Bill Schwerin to cover the cost of labor and
material.
It was moved by Trustee Malonek and seconded by Trustee Zettek that the Board
authorize an expenditure of X180 to cover the west walls of the billing and
storage rooms with accoustical tile. The President directed the Clerk to call
the roll on the motion and upon the roll being called the following Trustees

"ABSENT', - none. Whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
The Clerk reported that the present photo copying machine, purchased in 1961 ,
is still in good condition and producing good work but that because of the
present volume (500 to 600 copies per month) consideration has been given to
acquiring another machine, one which would produce "dry" copies and would
require less operating time. The Clerk said that literature and demonstrations
were received on several machines, but that the Xerox 813 Copier has more of the
features desired in a copy machine for the present conditions and work load.
The Xerox is not available except through a rental agreement which may be
cancelled upon notice of 15 days by the Village. The delivery charge for the
equipment would be $12, the monthly rental would ;610 and the minimum number of
copies charged for by Xerox would be 800 per month, at 4-21-0 per copy and the
remaining charges would be for paper at .007 per page. The Clerk said that if
this is approved, the present machine will be transferred to the Police Depart-
ment for their use and convenience in copying accident reports and other material.
It was moved by Trustee Keith and seconded by Trustee "Lewis that the Board

conduct its first local Poppy Sale on May 21 and May 22, 1964; and the Children's
Benefit League of Chicago & Suburbs has requested permission to hold its annual
Tag Day on October 2, 1964. There were no objections by the Board to these
functions being conducted in Elk Grove Village. I
Mr. James DeLill, of V.F.W. Post 9284, said that they will be carrying the
Village colors in all local parades, now that they are the official color
guard, however, there is a need for flag staffs which are suitable for carrying
while marching, the cost.of which would be '$50 for two. This equipment would
be Village property.

with eagles. The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion
